About the Book:

An earth-like world of high-tech humans faces the reality that their world is not as safe as they thought it was. Five people are thrown together to quietly get to the bottom of an unfathomable mana event that must stay quiet. If the population of Terath becomes aware of the truth,

it will spark a civil war. That war would pit the majority of the population against the powerful minority with the ability to harness and manipulate mana.The resulting cataclysmwould decimate the population and tear apart the foundation of society.

The five people chosen for thismust reconsider everything they thought they knew about mana, even as they learn to trust one another’s abilities. They must embrace everything they never wanted in order to prevent the devastation of their world. One of them will be forever changed. Love will be denied, badassery will be unleashed, and Terath will never be the same.

Being an avid admirer of art,
albeit a total failure at creating it, Will was pleased to spend his
morning perusing the offerings. Examining the artwork in the gallery
hall relieved his mind momentarily of the burdens he carried. He was
admiring a particularly intriguing sculpture of a nude male holding a
ladder when the back of his neck prickled. He sensed someone standing
directly behind him, and he immediately felt uncomfortable and alert.
He focused on the sculpture and sidestepped around the display, under
the guise of examining the art from another perspective. He adjusted
his stance to allow him to see the newcomer in his peripheral vision.

Fine, light blue hair grazed the
woman’s jawline in a blunt bob. The unusual shade was surprisingly
well-suited to her whiskey-colored eyes and lightly tanned
complexion. She was a good bit shorter than he was, and in her
mid-twenties, he estimated. She wore a long, casual dress that did
not shy away from the curves underneath. His appraisal skidded to a
stop when he noticed her wide mouth curving into an even wider smile.
Like his own, her gaze remained on the artwork, but she nonetheless
had realized that he was studying her. And she apparently found it
amusing.

He straightened and began to move
toward another art display.

“You don’t like it?” the
woman questioned.

He really didn’t want to talk to
her but didn’t want to be rude. Will re-oriented himself back
toward her and the art. “I do. The lines are fluid but convey a
great deal of energy. I have to wonder about his plan for the
ladder.”

Her enthusiastic nod sent her hair
swinging gently. “Yes, energy. Male energy. This piece has definite
appeal for anyone who enjoys nudes of men, as you do.”

He nodded politely, then froze
when he considered the potential subtext of her words. He didn’t
care for the familiarity she’d assumed.

He looked straight into her eyes
for the first time, and her smile grew wide again. As he struggled
for a proper response, she chuckled.
